National Film Board of Canada | Highrise Tainan, Taiwan

I’m currently wrapping up some multimedia work in Tainan, Taiwan, my mother’s hometown, for a wonderfully ambitious project from the National Film Board of Canada. True to the forkingpaths spirit, the entire project showcases 6-10 nested mini-stories within a novel panoramic interface. I’ll be sure to share further details and post a link when the site is updated, but for now here is a ‘pre-site.‘ To give you a sense of the scope, here’s the TRAILER to the project and the blurb :

This is a *pre-site* for HIGHRISE, a multi-year, multi-media, collaborative documentary project about the human experience in global vertical suburbs. We will use the acclaimed interventionist and participatory approaches of the award-winning National Film Board of Canada’s Filmmaker-in-Residence (FIR) project. Our scale will be global, but rooted firmly in the FIR philosophy — putting people, process, creativity, collaboration, and innovation first.
